Just a quick tip that we use Jimmy, when you rob parts put a bit of masking tape on the windshield or steering wheel and write down what's missing. That way next time you'll be reminded before you redline it 😂
Honestly Jimmy with how much spoon brings to your channel and how much he has done for you and brought to your channel I think a drift build for him would be a great idea and very much deserved in my opinion
I have an E46 coupe i probably could part with as a donation, if spoon reads this hit me up. Not too far from raceway park could grab next time you guys go to track in jersey
I`d love to see Stevie doing up a drift Chaser tbh, looks like more of his style compared to the S-chassis stuff. I`d love to see a 4WD beast being built by Jimmy, like a drift Evo
@@dmariusg He has mates with drift subaru's. Plus they're a much easier build/parts (fdf even has angle kits). As long as you stay ej20 and dont use an ej25 you're golden.
I'm pretty sure your adapter didn't fit at first because you probably have E30 early model non-abs trailing arms. The bore where the axle goes in to is slightly smaller than an ABS E30 trailing arm. If you order a wheel bearing for an E30 and you find that it is too big to fit in, you have a non-abs trailing arm because of the smaller bore, it also takes a smaller wheel bearing. I found this out the hard way, and parts store axles will have the abs ring on the axle, and it will not fit the hole where the axle goes until you take that ring out.
The last video of it in a thumbnail is like 14 months ago and it's been featured a few times since then, notably when you just got it back from your friend that you loaned it to, and they installed the rear end adjustments, I don't remember which video since it wasn't the main subject but that was just a few months ago, less than a year.
I remember when he got the shop and was like this is so huge, it's over kill blah blah blah, and they were hanging christmas lights from the rafters in a giant dimly lit shop, and now he's running out of space, AFTER renting the next door facility as well, and he has cars in multiple countries too. Crazy how far he's come
Maaaan this is the car that made me fall in love with this channel! Been following since before they moved shops too! I still think Jimmy needs to make playlists for all the cars 😜 A playlist for this car would help newer audiences get caught up on the story!
Haven't been watching much. I started back to work for a private shop. He's always busy, but he doesn't rush out jobs. I'm going to start doing mobile auto repair in the evening and weekends.
Yes to the boys drifting!! Love seeing all of the old builds coming out but I think this needs to Segway into everyone in the whole building a car they have always wanted to or the personal ones
finally e30 is sliding again. Jimmy U R getting now very comfy to drift any car and thats good cos years of blood and sweat and elektro/mechanical knowledge starts paying off ...now U R believing in yourself after japan trip so go for it!!. Very good team where anyone know there jobs and everybody having fun after hard work. Have a good drift live guys. an trip an trip
Ive bin waiting to see all the crew getting to drive or drift some of the fleet. I almost feel like you should let them each pick a car to become familiar with and all go do some grip racing on a track somewhere. Be so awesome to see.
I just started driving my e30 again after sitting for a year. I always forget how special it feels to drive! Still the stock m20b25 5speed purrs like a kitten
depends what diff you have aswell. If you keep breaking axels it probably has the small case diff, the medium case way stronger. There was no shot of the diff from the rear so I couldn't even tell which one it was L.
Next long series needs to be a Spoon drift build. It’ll be the cleanest, most perfect but gnarliest drift build it’ll be sick to see spoon have control on his style rather than him pulling off your builds
Hey Jimmy and gang, hi from England! Just wanted to say found the channel through seeing you in collabs with LZ and Drift Games and stuff...fully binged all the old content, love the general vibe and mix of cars too! Keep it up 👍
@@BariLopesh oh no I didn't realise! But at least the millions of people who asked for a pointless douchebaggy reply got what they wanted hey. I'll wait for an invite next time 👍
@Jimmy Oakes My favorite car probably out of them all just and what solidified my obsession with E30 sedans. Such a good girl and regret having to let go of mine. One day 🥲 I live vicariously through you!
"Cars man... You think it's gunna be quick and easy... It never is. Write that whole afternoon off boys..." Has to be the most accurate thing I've ever heard 😂
If its breaking axles the subframe or diff bushings maybe trash, on the LX cars the factory subframe bushings alow the diff to move around so much the axles snap
In the times I have to use a part from another car, I like to write myself a post-it note and stick it right on the dash to remind myself something is missing. Otherwise I'm destined to forget like Jimmy.
It's a classic ripper, and I'm happy that you have given it some love. Looks fantastic, but please put the side skirts and rear valence on it....needs a sick livery.
Hard no on the livery. This thing is a classy sleeper drift car! It looks more like a show car than a drift beast (besides the front camber, but if you don't know much about drifting you'll just think it's another one of Jimbo's stance boi cars. Lol.
Hyped to see you in my home town tomorrow just hope you don’t say you’re in Chicago the whole time when we’re an hour south lol. Maybe you could swing by when gridlife does their event at the other track in town
So good to see that bird out flying again. I still have so many feels that you willingly drift one of the most sought after bmw chassis, so dope. Hope all who drive it enjoy what it is. Super sic.
You better upload a lengthy video (like 40 min+) with the guys learning how to drift. That`s gotta be hilarious stuff
Get this to the top! Lol

Bump
Bumpity bump
i feel like it was just yesterday we was watching Jimbo put ITBs in the E30, time flies
Yeah for real, I would have fully believed if they said this build was finished 6 months ago
He done the itbs not long ago, built the car long time ago. Title is clickbait lol
That's about the time I started watching jimmy regularly
@@1995VScommodore it was '21 when the itbs were installed i just looked back
Got so much love for the E30. ❤
Absolutely love Brian ❤ miss seeing him so much but that’s life
brians in pretty much every single dj video..

I hope this drift school day turns into a build series for everyones own seat time car
That's a lot of car 🔥

fuck yea maybe take a bit of inspiration from Cleetus McFarlands boat series!!!!

So stoked to see the boys ripping the Z and E30. Stevie is gonna be a natural. Hes a car guy in the making.

I love my E30 324D 1987 💜💜❤❤
Jim's officially a car hoarder lol He's gonna need a bigger shop soon.
I remember when he got the shop and was like this is so huge, it's over kill blah blah blah, and they were hanging christmas lights from the rafters in a giant dimly lit shop, and now he's running out of space, AFTER renting the next door facility as well, and he has cars in multiple countries too. Crazy how far he's come
He needs a couple more stacker lifts to free up some floor space
That grumpy Brian pop in was the best thing ever.

YESSS! Playlist for all the cars! Its a no-brainer!
E30 has to be one of my favorite cars you own
the e30 is easily my fav car
The E30 and the Nissonda are my favorite builds on this channel
So funny cuz the vid were you put the intake velocity stack on in was the actual video that made me hooked to your channel
Love the E30!
The bimmer sedan I started watching this channel 2 years ago!! The nardi wheel always gets me weak love to see it
The BMW hasn't been on the channel since you let the polish guys borrow it Jimmy so its been a good minute !
Feels like 8 months ago
S52 was from a 99 auto m3 vert. I miss my old engine my boy 😅 Super stoked it’s in a good home and your lovin it!
good afternoon patreon
Th E30 is the car that got me hooked on this channel.
That e30 is a straight dream car for me. Glad u were able to pull it out for the video.
I recently got an e30 and binged the content so glad its coming back
Haven't been watching much. I started back to work for a private shop. He's always busy, but he doesn't rush out jobs. I'm going to start doing mobile auto repair in the evening and weekends.
1:11 love this idea🥹
Love my E30, doing a respray right now. Glad its getting some camera time.
Spoon: I’m not gonna do anything around here.
*dumps clutch*
Your e30 and e36 are my favorite cars on the channel.
Yes to the boys drifting!! Love seeing all of the old builds coming out but I think this needs to Segway into everyone in the whole building a car they have always wanted to or the personal ones

Very good team where anyone know there jobs and everybody having fun after hard work. Have a good drift live guys. an trip an trip
Its fun to see you take out youre old cars again. Keep up the amazing videos!!
BEGGING for a dedicated clean up video. Take out all the cars and get em all shined up. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Lol Brian with the no hellos, I need a socket, no goodbyes haha, You know the mood he was in dealing with those lug nuts, we all been there.
9:42 I'm all for it, bro's supporting bro's!
Man! I think the last time I remember the e30 being out was when Night Ride drove it. Love that car!
Actually went back last week and watched the whole e30 series. Came to the channel after that and definitely loved the build.
Love that you guys are pulling the cars out of the back
Can’t wait to finish my S54 E30 this is giving me motivation
The E30 needs one of those Vibrant dual tip mufflers! The fart can looks out of place!
When is the Porsche from Ireland getting delivered? I’d like to see that build
Dirty 30 is back and I'm fuckin hyped for it. That car made me fall more in love with old BMWs
me and my mate have a 1.8vvt NB MX5 stock power, and on a grippy track we are having to run 85PSI in the rear and 35PSI up front
Ive bin waiting to see all the crew getting to drive or drift some of the fleet. I almost feel like you should let them each pick a car to become familiar with and all go do some grip racing on a track somewhere. Be so awesome to see.
I really love how you kept that car all BMW so OEM plus out of all your cars for me. I think that Beamer is the best I’d pick that one.
I just started driving my e30 again after sitting for a year. I always forget how special it feels to drive! Still the stock m20b25 5speed purrs like a kitten
Perfect timing with the upload
been waiting man. thx
9:54 spoons holding jims waist... jim "says Auhhh Auhhh it slivers"🤣

Watch Austin start building his GTO and Spoon start building an E30/36 after drifting the E30. Calling it now! 😂
I love the style of the E30. To me it's the very best of an american interpretation of japanese styling, but on a euro car! i Love it
The only japanese thing are the brides and the nardi, the wheels are hartge reps, and the front lip is an IS/ES valance which is OEM BMW.
Next long series needs to be a Spoon drift build. It’ll be the cleanest, most perfect but gnarliest drift build it’ll be sick to see spoon have control on his style rather than him pulling off your builds
I went to go look at an E30 on a rainy Thanksgiving Day hydroplaned off of the freeway. Never made it there lol it's been a dream car ever since
the vibes are immaculate
Hell yeah, crushing this upload with my coffee
I love the E90
Definitely Jimmy’s best car in the fleet.
So happy to see the e30 gettin some love, such a sick car!
Hey Jimmy and gang, hi from England! Just wanted to say found the channel through seeing you in collabs with LZ and Drift Games and stuff...fully binged all the old content, love the general vibe and mix of cars too! Keep it up 👍
No one asked where you were from...
@@BariLopesh oh no I didn't realise! But at least the millions of people who asked for a pointless douchebaggy reply got what they wanted hey. I'll wait for an invite next time 👍
you should build an E34
@Jimmy Oakes My favorite car probably out of them all just and what solidified my obsession with E30 sedans. Such a good girl and regret having to let go of mine. One day 🥲 I live vicariously through you!
I’m excited to see the boys drive. Can’t wait to see spoons build after this
"Cars man... You think it's gunna be quick and easy... It never is. Write that whole afternoon off boys..."
Has to be the most accurate thing I've ever heard 😂
E30 best car ! Glad to finally see it back. This is motivating me to keep pushing on mine 🤙🏽
The old e30 videos is how I originally found this channel.
Boom Patreon gang

You all gotta get the same platform and do a drift build all 5 cars in your own styles but matching liveries
E30,36,and 46 all in one 👌👌👌
10:05 “Brian what are ya doing? Don’t you have work?”
Bro the next 10 seconds KILLED ME😂😂😂
Shop videos are the best
Miss my e30 back in the 2000s looked exactly like yours Jim but yours is a bit better❤💯🔥🔥
Perfect time for my lunch break 😩
Spoon needs a DA integra and get a awd kit from S1built and make it rear wheel drive and drift that.
More of this car please!!
Jimmy and gang y'all rock! The gang is going to have fun tomorrow! Peace
Brian just stoppin in all pissed is gold 🤣
Love the E30 content! Can't wait to see the dudes rip it!
You may want to check the lash in the rear just in case. Could be a bit loose
Hyped to see you in my home town tomorrow just hope you don’t say you’re in Chicago the whole time when we’re an hour south lol. Maybe you could swing by when gridlife does their event at the other track in town
If i recall correctly, Z3 M rear arms diff etc fit into an E30, just makes it 2cm wider track width & 5 lug, correct me if im wrong
E30 looks beautiful... NO RANDOM TANDEM Damnit!!!
love seeing the old builds being brought out! Im dying to see the s14 kswap tho!!!!!!!
Been dying to see the e30!! Thanks Jim n gang
Good times nicely done
That four door has my power train I need in my 1969 2002
19:10 little Taylor ray shoutout for josway
Safety squints with the glasses plus the tongue out 🤣relatable!
Long sleeves, a mask and goggles are a must when using a burr bit.
You know Jimmy builds great cars when he can let them sit for over a year and it starts right up 1st try.
The e30 🎉🎉🎉🎉 that car is why i subscribed to you
So good to see that bird out flying again. I still have so many feels that you willingly drift one of the most sought after bmw chassis, so dope. Hope all who drive it enjoy what it is. Super sic.
Watching this on my break while hearing Porsches fly down the track at willow 😂 gotta get my Oakes gang fill in for the day
About time you started on the e30. Also what’s the time frame on the montero I j heard your building??
Damn love that car ! I have soo much crap in boxes for her .. I need to go thru it and start sending to u and Chris .
